AFTERNOON SESSION

Mechanical Scheduling: Project Leader vs. Project Follower

Understanding the Basics

The days of relying upon unrealistic and illogical schedules created by General Contractors and Construction Managers are long gone. In today's complicated and challenging construction market, Mechanical Contractors must be become project leaders not continue to be project followers. To be a project leader, the MECHANICAL PROJECT MANAGER AND FOREMAN must jointly develop a logical, reasonable, and achievable mechanical project schedule. The mechanical work must then be managed against that schedule and thereby using it as a project baseline. 
 

Scheduling the mechanical work also provides more project control and better documentation when projects, which are often delayed by others, are forced to accelerate to meet the original completion date. Mechanical contractors who do little project scheduling often find themselves at the mercy of unrealistic CM/GC/owners? schedules that lack mechanical detail activities.
